Standard models will adorn any room and any suite of furniture, while the perioa designs are works of art which embody all that is finest and best in historic craftsmanship.

Look around your living room and see if there is not one spot just made for a Victrola-a spot where nothing else looks quite as well. We shall be pleased to supply you with the instrument most appropriate in style. Come and se our stock.
